Session: Symposium--Managing for Crop Input-Use Efficiency and Environmental Balance

Title: Symposium--Managing for Crop Input-Use Efficiency and Environmental Balance

Session Description: Chasing higher crop yields is often accomplished through high-input management practices but ​may cause negative environmental impacts​ in the process. This session will attempt to ​address the question of whether achieving higher yields is environmentally and economically possible and discuss the pros and cons of using input-use efficiency measures on​ a yield-per-input and yield-per-environmental footprint basis for increasing yields and reducing environmental impact.
